An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Developing Strategic Partnerships, Joint Ventures & Consortia
Prospects, Analysis, and Execution
Course Introduction
“Businesses once grew in two ways: grass roots up or acquisition. But business also grows through alliances - joint ventures - partnerships, which very few people understand.” - Peter Drucker
This highly interactive training course will clearly demonstrate the unique formations, rationales, and execution of world-class strategic partnerships, joint ventures, and consortium alliances.
It will help team leaders learn skills and techniques to both approach and develop new potential alliances, as well as respond to outside inquiries from other firms and organizations about engaging in partnerships, joint ventures, or consortium – covering all facets of such deals, including financial, technological, structural, legal, and managerial.
This Oxford Management Centre training course will examine the latest ways to engage in high-level alliance dialogues aimed at opening new markets, accessing new capital sources, tapping into new talent, and leveraging enhanced technologies - helping turn average team leaders into initiators and closers of new business development opportunities.
